Apple Music's Ebro Darden and Nadeska Alexis will interview Lamar and pre-game performers beginning at 10 a.m. Central time. The rap megastar takes the Super Bowl stage fresh off a Grammy triumph, where he claimed two of the night's biggest awards — song and record of the year — for his diss track “Not Like Us.”

Long before he dreamed of playing the Super Bowl, Lamar was inspired by Arron Afflalo and Compton's sports stars.

February has already been a big month for Kendrick Lamar, who is also coming off of a particularly hot 2024. And on Sunday night, he will take the stage at the Caesers Superdome in New Orleans as the headliner of the Super Bowl halftime show.
